    Sure! TurboTax has a specific section for reporting cryptocurrency gains and losses. When you enter your crypto transactions, TurboTax will calculate your gains or losses based on the purchase and sale prices. It takes into account factors like the cost basis, holding period, and any fees associated with the transactions. TurboTax also supports various types of crypto transactions, including buying, selling, trading, and mining. It's important to accurately report your crypto activities to comply with tax regulations and avoid any potential penalties.
